Tribological Behaviour of PA6,6+15%GF and ABS Made by Injection

Abstract:

The main objective of this work was to study the influence of the injection moulding process on the tribological behaviour of ABS polymers and nylon PA6.6+15% of glass fibres. The article also describes the structure of wear maps. Its topic is the preservation of the initial surface roughness at the bottom of the track in tribotesting. Testing and measurement methodologies and data processing techniques are described. ABS and PA6.6+15%GF are polymers. Their specifications state that they are both thermoplastics with very similar characteristics. Tribotesting was employed to find whether or not this is the case. The pin-on-disc method was used to obtain the data. As a summary of the experiment was created wear map that describes the behavior of the material with various input test conditions. During subsequent analysis of this map were discovered not correlating areas that were undergone to further investigation. During this investigation an unknown inclusions in the structure were revealed which are now subjected to further investigation.
